CoCoA:Monomials

Monomials

the list of monomials of a polynomial or vector

Description

This function returns the list of monomials of F. The function

<ttref>Support</ttref> returns the list of terms (monomials without coefficients).

Example

  Use R ::= Q[x,y];
  F := 3x^2y+5y^3-xy^5;
  Monomials(F);
[-xy^5, 3x^2y, 5y^3]
-------------------------------
  Support(F);
[xy^5, x^2y, y^3]
-------------------------------
  Monomials(Vector(3x^2y+y,5xy+4));
[Vector(3x^2y, 0), Vector(0, 5xy), Vector(y, 0), Vector(0, 4)]
